Affiliated member IACBC training program in Cognitive-Behavioral Coaching

We invite you to be part of the first certified training program in CBC which will give you the chance to discover its tools and learn how to be effective as coach. Cognitive-behavioral psychological interventions are the most well investigated and CBC is the most effective coaching approach based on recent reviews. Thus, our program will offer a variety of evidence-based procedures that you can incorporate in your coaching practice.

Did you know that many of the coaching tools currently used are based on theories that are either not supported by research or are pseudo-scientific (with research not supporting their claims)? Some of the stigma associated to coaching comes from these limitations and the lack of adequate training of some of those practicing it. Did you know that rigorous research exists in the field of coaching (e.g., meta-analyses; see DeMeuse, Dai, & Lee, 2009; Jones, Woods, & Guillome, 2016; Theeboom, Beersma, & van Vianen, 2014) showing the fact that CBC is the most effective approach to coaching?

You have now the opportunity to choose to practice evidence-based coaching and follow a systematic training program!
